My view of the world through a lens

fungus

This week’s photo challenge – to highlight the structure of something often overlooked. I think that fungi probably fit into this category.

I came upon this particular specimen on a recent walk. I think that its structure is quite beautiful – with its symmetric “wings” in shades of green and brown. Like a butterfly that is ready to take flight.

Next time you take a walk, don’t forget to look down. You never know what fascinating features might be hiding in plain sight.
